Sushimania in Reading

You pay for what you get basically. The price point is cheap for a Japanese restaurant but the quality is average.

My partner and I went to Sushimania Reading, after having moved here and having a great experience at St. Albans. My word were we wrong, we weren’t even shown to a table, we were just waived to one and then waited for 10 minutes until I had to wave down a waiter to ask for the all you can eat. Food came and was absolutely fine The issue is the service charge and rude manager who has a go at you. The receipt is presented to you with “discretionary service charge” which if we check the definition of discretionary it’s “available for use at the discretion of the user” Asked the waiter to remove it and they tried to keep it on, then the manager came over huffing and puffing about it, saying they had to up prices due to cost of everything, which is fine… up your menu price. They kept shouting and trying to bully me in, at no point did I raise my voice but they made the point to go “this is what we call having an adult discussion” whilst being berated. This has truly, through and through, ruined our experience and we will not ever be retuning. Manager, if you’re reading this, get a grip mate. It’s a service charge that goes to the wait staff, either pay them properly or put up the actual price, don’t make the customers have to pay your issues. Finally, stop being rude. It’s discretionary, doesn’t matter what your paper says, the receipt says discretionary, there for I can remove it. Went on to whine saying “if you don’t want to pay service charge don’t go to restaurant” - no, the point of wait staff is literally to carry my food from the kitchen to my table, what more do they even do? The only difference between Wetherspoons (where there is no service charge) and Sushimania is the fact is you serve sushi. Will be reporting this to HMRC as this all feels a little suspicious

The attitude of the staff, particularly the elderly man with the grey hair is awful. Tried to add charges onto the bill, when questioned he threatened to call the police. We are both of Mexican descent and were speaking Spanish - and I can only assume these charges were added due to racism. The drinks are sold as well know brands, such as coke/sprite etc - when they arrive you will soon realise they are watered down and cheap versions of the advertised brands.

The coke is not actual coke, the food isn’t hygienically prepared. If you are any race different form their own - they will attempt to overcharge you and make up charges.

Food prepared pretty quick, fish was fresh.

Disappointing Service Overshadowed by Great Food! I recently had the opportunity to dine at Sushimania with a group of colleagues, and while the food was genuinely excellent—fresh and flavorful—the service we received was concerning and disappointing. After calling ahead to reserve a table for 15, I was told to walk in due to a 50% discount on the à la carte menu. Upon arrival, we were informed that a table for our group was available. However, when two of my colleagues arrived with their infants in strollers, there was no assistance from the staff to help them navigate the establishment. This lack of support was surprising and unacceptable, especially considering the circumstances. When we requested the menu, we were provided with a barcode for the à la carte options but noticed a promotion for an unlimited menu. Upon inquiring about this option, the manager's attitude shifted noticeably. Instead of providing clear information, he began raising his voice while moving between tables, which created a tense atmosphere. Additionally, he insisted on taking our orders without properly explaining the choices available. While I understand that managing a busy restaurant can be challenging, the behavior exhibited by the manager was unprofessional and detracted from what could have been an outstanding dining experience. I urge Sushimania to address these service issues, as they could significantly improve customer satisfaction and overall experience. Thank you for considering this feedback.

Need to improve customer service a lot. Service charge is not mandatory especially if the service is bad.

So a very good place of course and a very hygienic Sushi place and very detailed, but the delivery arrives very late and I have to wait a average of 30 Mins minimum but then it arrive later than I expected it to be, but still a very good place. I can say I am very happy about this place so far.

Very reasonable and huge positions. Good value for money.

I think that sushimania is something of a hidden gem! Overall pleasant, peaceful atmosphere. Extensive menu with a variety of interesting options. I highly recommend all vegetable sushi , kimchi sushi, and Crispy salmon. I would not get the futomaki again, as I felt it was underfillded with Prawn, compensating with too much rice. Servers could be more attentive - you often have to approach the bar to get their attention. Saying that, some may prefer the introverted experience. The process of ordering the food was confusing at first. I have yet to try the bottomless, I feel that a couple plates is plenty. I'd still recommend sushimania for some good value, delicious sushi!! ☆😸☆

The food is not fresh at all!!! We ordered tempura and the result is my partner vomiting all night and I have symptom of diarrhea!

When we ordered from the app, we didn’t add the 160£ thing but when we check out, it just went on and added us £160 for 6 ppl like what the heck???? And we also ordered a take away of a udon and after we check out the udon, we went to check out for our meal that we ate here, they said we need to pay for the take away too. Like what the freak? Are they blind or sth??? Also a lot of things are not in stock like if ur things are not in stock then add a not in stock label bruh what the heck!!!

My favourite sushi restaurant!! I love everything about sushimania Reading

Food was mediocre and that being polite. Zero vibe. We were 1st time visitors and tried various dishes with our two kids, no one liked the food so we ordered a few other dishes (abiding by the time limit system they have on their app to avoid over ordering!!) we did not repeat order any food but were accused of over ordering and were to be charged on top of the pretty expensive set prices. Said I would take the leftovers and give to someone in need outside the restaurant but they refused. The table next to us were charged for a toddler even though she ate no food - their take was as she was sitting at the table she had to be charged Horrible manager and a horrible restaurant Please visit if you like very average food and poor service and terrible attitude

lovely staff and atmosphere, food was delicious. Favourite Nigiri will be the Scalop one!!❤🤩

Lovely food, very large selection and not just Sushi, tempura prawns delicious. Took the train so we could drink the sake, perfect temperature. Ordering via the app big improvement for speed, nice setting inside and all you can eat terrific value. Just don't fill up on rice.

Tis expensive but u def won't leave hungry. The plates kept coming ! Drinks are not included in the unlimited menu. Very close to Hexagon too so ideal for theatre shows. Recommend booking.

One of my favorite sushi restaurants. You can actually stuff yourself with high quality sushi !

Half price lunch is such great value. Our go to place for sushi.

Incredibly good value with the half price offer, all dishes were very tasty and came in good portion size, makes queueing for the table worth it, will certainly come back!

Honestly, the only place I bother to queue for. Always polite. Not annoying or pushy staff. The food is amazing at an incredible price. If you're introverted like us, you will enjoy the place. My favorite place in Reading. I strongly recommend the Katsu pumpkin curry.

Booked a table on a busy Friday night. Seated quickly and directed to a QR code for placing orders. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We did three full rounds on the AYCE and tried a little bit of lots of things, I don't remember anything we were unhappy with. Seen reviews about rude staff, I'd say more they are quick and direct, rather than rude. Get the job done rather than any over the top "customer service". This suits me just fine, I'm here to spend time with my wife, but if you expect to be waited on then you probably won't be pleased. Would come back in a heartbeat!

Valued Japanese food, quite Japanese taste, instead of mixed Western style and taste.

They left me utterly frustrated with the service. Despite the restaurant not being busy, the staff seemed more interested in socializing than attending to customers. It took an unacceptable amount of time to even get acknowledged, let alone receive any service. The young girl who served us were quite rude, I think the customer service is not for her and the other waitress didn't really understand us as her English is not good. Guys have your google translator ready. Haha Overall, the service experience was a major letdown, and I would caution others against expecting anything better.

The food was delicious, but the driver spilt half of my soup dumped my order on the doorstep and didn’t say sorry. Even I pointed out that there was leakage in the bag

My recent visit to Sushimania in Reading was a complete letdown due to the dismal management and service. The staff seemed utterly disorganized, leading to an overall chaotic atmosphere. It was evident that the management lacked proper training and oversight, resulting in a subpar dining experience. And they make a service charge for the dismal services. Additionally, the servers were inattentive and indifferent to customer needs, further adding to the frustration. It’s disappointing to see such poor management in what could be a great dining establishment. Save yourself the headache and choose a different restaurant.

This is one of our favourite restaurants in Reading. Not sure why there are so many negative reviews, so here's our view. We've been regular customers since mid-2023 and haven't had a bad meal or experience. The service is great, it's quick, polite and accommodating. You are greeted and seated on entry, however it gets busy on the weekends! The food is very nice and the portions are good too. Our go-to meals are chicken katsu curry and duck teriyaki don. You order via the QR code (either a-la-carte or bottomless menu).

They gave me food poisoning Identified as scombotoxin from incorrect chilling of raw fish I have been ill for a week

Mediocre Japanese restaurant with localized all you can eat menu. Not very exciting food as you can expect from a buffet style restaurant. Recommended for the value for money and if you've not been to Japan for the authentic stuff. Service is okay, but I would prefer not to use their confusing app for ordering - which wasn't an option!

Food is always fresh and looks very nice One of the best value for money restaurants especially for Japanese food . Service could always be better but never bad

Best japanese food I've ever eaten! Served quickly. It's a pity I am staying only few days in Reading. I could move here just for this place!!! 5 stars is not enough, I still would give it above the upper limit!

It's such a beautiful place, and the food is amazing 10/10. I can't wait to come back here again for some more yummy sushi 😋

Great value with the half price lunchtime deal. Service was slightly odd, asking for tap water and getting one glass to share? But we were there for the value food, which we got and it was great.

The food was delicious especially the spicy dragon rolls but the waiter with glasses was very rude, behaved like the boss of Sushimania and made fun of customers, which ruined the good vibe of our meal.

Delicious all you can eat meal with loads of variety and friendly service. Not cheap, but if you're hungry well worth the bottomless option. It was quite quiet while we were there and service was very quick.

Total crooks. Would not remove the “optional service charge” and refused very rudely, this charge of course does NOT go to the waiting staff. Restaurant is literally stuck in the 1970’s. Told friends who also will not be visiting anymore. Very greedy owner.

It's had to say I was walking passad that's all so please don't go on what I say .

My go-to place in Reading, and the best buffet place in the UK I have been so far. Most buffet places tend to provide a variety of average or low quality food, but Sushimania cooks every dish to a high standard when ordered, which makes it unique. It is only 26.80 pp and you can get sashimi, unlimited sushi, prawn tempura etc. Make sure you try prawn and oyster tempura when you are there. They are the best on the earth. Last, but not least, you do not get MSG syndrome in Sushimania like other buffet places. Their dishes are lightly salted, and more of the natural taste. :)

All-you-can-eat sushi that was fresh, delicious, and didn't break the bank. Super friendly service from the waitress and the head sushi chef. Chill vibes, perfect for a casual date or even a family outing. Wheelchair accessible too! Would definitely go back!

Not sure why so many negative reviews - the sushi is fine and tempura tasty and service very fast. It's also much cheaper than Osaka! Would recommend a visit. Don't bother with bottomless unless you're very hungry as a la carte probably works out cheaper.

Sushi mania has been one of my go tos for years. With the cost of living crisis, I was expecting the prices to have raised significantly for all you can eat - but they are still affordable (around £25 + 10% service fee) We love coming for all you can eat. This used to be done on paper but now you use a QR code on your phone. The Wi-Fi was a bit dodgy but it worked in the end. You get a round every 15 minutes. No matter how hungry we come, we’ve never stayed longer than the rounds last. There is plenty of food and it makes sense. The sushi includes mostly tuna & salmon. There is also shrimp, eel, inari, and other items. There is even salmon sashimi (3 orders of 3 slices per person). The sushi is limited but hey - it’s all you can eat! And you can add al a carte rolls if you’d like to spice things up. The hot food includes karage, ramen, teriyaki salmon, seaweed salad, and many other options The hot food comes in much larger portions. For example, the karage will be a pile of 15 while the nigiri is only 2 pieces. The rolls I believe are 6 pieces. The staff is always very kind to us. We really enjoy being here. There are always other people enjoying their food. It’s a great night out. I think this location would get 5 stars if we saw a couple new additions to the all you can eat sushi. But for what it is - it’s a great option for a sushi lover

Cannot recommend enough. We stopped in here before a show at The Hexagon and I've been obsessively thinking about the food every since. Very decent portions, great prices, yummy food. What more can you ask for!

We dined at Sushimania Reading several times and unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. As soon as we went there, there were no greetings, just got shown our table and we had requested for a high chair for my little one. But they wouldn’t give me one and showed me the sofa for my little to sit on! Then they got a new system where you order via the QR Code app on your mobile. The food then was served and it was good. Presentation was well presented. The staff's attitude was consistently rude throughout my visit, which results in a negative experience. Additionally, I was surprised to be asked to pay a service charge, as the service provided did not meet my expectations. When we asked them to remove the service charge, the staff stated that you’re paying half price of the lunch and you have to pay the service charge. This is was just utter nonsense! Then the manager came and stated that the service charge is not much and the service charge is for the service for bringing the food to the table. We ended up paying the charge, as we couldn’t be bothered with the pointless dispute. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant, even though the food was good; but due to the poor customer service and lackluster experience!

They offer a bottomless menu for 105 minutes, promising unlimited Asian cuisine. While the food quality, especially the chicken gyozas, is commendable, priced at £26.99 per person, the bottomless option feels a bit overpriced. Opting for a starter, main, and drink might offer better value for money without compromising on the dining experience.

The staff is very rude and disrespectful. We ordered as much as possible coz we are very hungry but the staff came to us with the order receipt and aggressively remind us if we can finish all of it. First of all, its very unnecessary, coz we know are capabilities. We are hungry, we can eat all we can. You should be grateful we chose to eat in your place!! At the end, we finish all we ordered.

One of my favourite places. Food is lovely staff is very friendly

The best restaurant in the whole town. Lots of vegetarian or vegan options. Nice service. The soups are especially gorgeous and the spinach rolls are magnificent. Recommend, recommend!

Wonderful service and quality for the price you pay

I ended up not being able to eat as my friends were doing 'bottomless' and I just wanted a few bits and pieces. They wouldn't issue me a separate bill to order my own food. So sat there hungry watching everyone else eat. Were very rude about it too. Friends said the food was very average. Will not be going back here. Ever. On principle.

Great food and wide variety. Definitely best sushi in Reading. Tried the buffet today and it was a pleasant experience. I don't really understand the negative reviews here and what kind of service these people were expecting. Nothing wrong about the service. Nice waitress lady kept offering to top up my water and thanked me for the business. Food was served in a timely manner. Will come back for sure.

I wouldn't go back. Not good people. Restaurant is not only about food but also Communication and Service. They are like a robot. Order, eat, pay, and leave quick as possible. No question, no talk. If you question, you will see frightening face. Cheers

First time at sushimania, was skeptical as we always go to yo sushi, but I have to say, the food was amazing! Ordering via the QR code on the app so easy, the tempura batter was the best I've ever had! So light and crispy! And all the rolls were perfect, so fresh and super filling!! And great price too!!! So happy we tried sushimania, will be back again soon !

Extremely rude staff! Couldn’t even be bothered to talk or explain things.

First time having Sushi and such a huge range. Went with a large group of mates meaning could try so many choices. Team are very friendly and happy to answer questions or support, but also very much leave you to it as it is all app based, Thursday night and very busy which is always a good sign!

Good food for a very good price. Still my go to place for Japanese food with a touch of Cantonese style.

It's been a few years since I was last here. Food is still good, but the prices have gone up and the new ordering system is unfriendly and not intuitive.

Food was a bit bland and extremely long delivery time. Delivery time was changed 3 or 4 times, finally delivered an hour and a half after ordering

Absolutely the best sushi in Reading.

Booked a table and drove for over an hour just to try this restaurant’s sushi buffet. Then told that we haven’t booked even tho showed evidence. We were told that we could have a table but would have to leave after an hour. Service was extremely poor, they did not care

Love Sushimania. Always a friendly welcome and good sushi

Relatively small place... when we enter the air conditioning was not on and it was relatively hot.. we ordered some sushis which were just fine. The service is acceptable... I liked mainly the decoration of the place very colorful ! The prices were reasonable. We paid around 30 usd per person.

We arrived early without reservation and we're very lucky to be seated. A popular venue near the Hexagon theatre. Four of us had numerous dishes, each a delight. The staff were friendly and engaging. Will definitely return.

Wonderful experience, sturdy tables to hold all this delicious food :)

I've had a great good there. Service is excellent.

This was a strange evening. First, the place has a number of what look like winos swigging from bottles around it. You go in and ambience is pleasant -a kind of eastern feel. The staff speak poor English and just direct you to a QR code which you use to order from. That is simple enough and the food arrives. The food was exceptional - tasty and brilliantly presented. Shame the service was rubbish. For a fixed price of £26 its not bad value. If you want the food then go along. If you want a smile or even a hello from the staff, then do not. Other reviews call the staff hostile, im not sure id go that far but certainly unfriendly.

won't stop ever coming here. Friendliest manager and staff and food is always on point

Great food, but slow on serving and as you only get a limited amount of time, it can eat into your eating time quite considerably. Drinks are not included in the price if you choose bottomless.

I was skeptical at trying out this restaurant at first, due to the negative reviews, but after my recent experience at this restaurant, it seems to me that some reviews are no longer reflective to present times. The restaurant have implemented ways to improve their service. Previous reviews mentioned about ordering verbally, and that the restaurant introduce tactical measures to prevent customers from ordering in a timely manner. Whereas they ignore you, slow in service or was rather rude in their manners. Luckily, this wasn't the case at all! We ordered via the app on our phones. It's a very convenient process, scan the QR code and ready to order. I like the technological aspect of this, save all the hassle and the app is very easy to navigate. The menu is very good, you can order tempuras, salmon sashimi, and so many other options. Definitely highly recommended based on the wide range of buffet selection. The food arrived rather promptly, good quality. I like the buffet option that they cook what you ordered, so it's freshly prepared out of the kitchen. We do not live locally, we have to travel 1 hour and 40mins to get to this restaurant, but we had already been back. It's definitely great value for money, the sashimi is very generous, thick slices. We will be back again! 🥰🥰

All you can eat is an amazing deal. Lots of items to choose from. However, too much rice in the sushi. In a business point of view, it's very smart, to be fair, for the price they are charging and the quality of food they are delivering, I will still come back, but I'm eating too much rice compared to other sushi places. The service is alright, not amazing, but good enough to stay. Nothing was offensive or overly rude. The waiter/waitress is normally very straight forward, get straight to the point. They are helpful when assistance needed.

Extreme misleading lunch offer. The management needs to do maths and realise it’s not half price lunch menu if they double the price first. For example, would anyone pay £15.80 for a side salad(pic attached) in a mediocre sushi cafe. Just lettuce and 2 baby tomatoes. Not good value and not surprised they had no customers. I used to go regularly with my daughter before lockdown as it was her favourite restaurant. Will not return and judging by the covers I’m probably not the only one. Floor Staff speaks loudly in their own language and laughing and gawping at guests dining alone for lunch. Go if you like the feeling of being stared at and then being ripped off. When I questioned the bill she was ready with the response so definitely this has been questioned as she was very snarky and prepared. Manager was friendly but I wasn’t looking for friends. Just a decent quick lunch but was scammed. Not all scammers are online I guess. Experience is mania but not in a good way.

Fresh, amazing food, good service and reasonable prices . We’re just love it & gonna come back again!

We ADORE sushimania. Brilliant prompt service, delicious sushi, relatively well priced (I remember when it was 14.90 for unlimited buffet... 25 now +10% gratuity) If you're looking for pandering staff don't come here, they're forward and short, we love it as we know what we want and when, but they're not chatty!

Good food variety on all you can eat. The sashimi is very generous, thick slices. The sushi is good. Will come back again.

We love this place, popping in here 2-3 times a week for a quick dinner for 2, which cost us rarely more than £20 total 😍 You do get a lot for money, we love the taste of their sushi's, salads, noodles, tempura, miso soups👍👍👍 Sad to see the restaurant is underrated on Google, but place is still mostly busy so people do enjoy it 😎 Highly recommended for both a la carte and all you can eat👍😊

Upd: August 2023. Their new online ordering system is weird. It automatically adds all you can eat menu to what appears to be your bill and staff don't explain this upon arrival so you end up looking at the screen thinking you just ordered something you didn't want. Then you ask the waiters and they impatiently explain to you that their computer can see that you didn't order it. Another thing about this system is that it's very ableist and ageist. It's online and you are assumed to have a phone, internet connection, be able to see and hear. They don't even ask you at the door if you'd prefer a paper menu which imho they should be doing. Good take out. Can get busy at times and we had a very disturbing experience there once when a couple with the baby started changing him at the actual table next to us. We complained and the staff just moved us but didn't say anything to the parents who were literally changing a soiled nappy in the area where food was being consumed. We could smell it from the other table. Gross.

Our go to sushi place in Reading. It's very consistent and the service is spot on. They regularly have half price a la carte menus and do a reasonably well priced all you can eat. No bells and whistles or manga and fake jasmine here, just good sushi and other things. Btw my favourite is the duck donburi and sweet prawn sushi.

The sea food noodle dish that I had was very poor - it had two prawns in it, some small chunks of fish and a crab stick! It cost over £6 and mostly consisted of noodles - I could have had a pot noodle at home instead. My husband ordered too much and could not finish one of the dishes, so he wanted to take it home, but the staff member said that we would need to pay double for each dish we want to take away. That is apparently the restaurant policy! I would not go there again.

Prices have gone up, quality has gone down. It never was the most amazing quality to begin with but it used to be nice enough. Now the quality has gone down quite a bit. Tempura was just awful - the batter was all wrong, it was burnt and full.of oil. Sashimi quality was pretty bad too.

A good selection, and not too pricey - especially on Friday at lunchtime. Good for a quick lunch. Service is generally pretty good, and there's consistency in what you get. Cures the itch for the sushi craving!

The worst place ever, wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else, yesterday 27th of June we were 6 academics& Students celebrating one of our students, we had our table reserved, but the guy was very very rude , he was literally yelling at us , he was shouting for about 10 minutes maybe more , we couldn’t get a proper menu , he didn’t answer anything about how we can order just yelling, very rude, bad language and tone, I strongly recommend to stay away from this place. If there is less than zero recommendation I would give it.

The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was great and the service was quite fast. Easy to order using a QR code and then processing the order was quick and efficient. Definitely coming back!

Overall great experience here; food is freshly made to order, tasty and great value. Highly recommend trying the ‘Jumbo Dragon Roll’, ‘Crunchy Salmon Roll’, ‘Unagi Don’ (eel and rice), ‘Soft Shell Crab Temaki’, ‘Tempura’, ‘Tofu Salad’ (the salad sauce is nice). The place gets busy during the weekend and we did not book, so recommend heading in just when they open for lunch or booking a table. They are popular for their all you can eat buffet (though ordering type) or half price on A La Carte. Bear in mind when you order it is via a QR code and you can make your selection on your phone, it is quite intuitive so many people will figure it out. The food is well prepared; good quality, generous portions and packed with flavour. Food service is fast too after ordering. I would definitely go back again and recommend to others to try during lunch periods for the offers in person.

I must admit, I stayed away from this place after reading all the bas reviews, but eventually curiosity was stronger, and I’m happy I gave it a try! I was worried mostly about the staff, but I must say they were nice, maybe a bit direct and straight to the point, but I wouldn’t call them rude. The food deal is where this restaurant shines, you can get so much for the set price! From sushi, to deep fried tempura shrimps. The food was tasty too, a bit sweet for my taste, but that’s all the Asian restaurants in the Uk, not just this one. I’d say to give it a try, and you’ll feel like you get a lot for your money!

Trust me! I have eaten many Chinese, Japanese and Korean dishes in many places but the dishes we get in Sushimania is next level. Every dish gives you unique taste. Staff there are really nice and the manager is not like a manager, he is like your friend. He talks to you as though he knows you for ages, makes you feel comfortable. My favorite go to place!! You will not regret eating there.

Quite a few vegan options - ask for the allergen book, quite easy to navigate with all dishes being numbered and the veggie ones being labelled. Have half price offers during lunchtime which make it a really good value meal!! Soba salad is lovely and sushi made fresh to order (had asparagus).

Rating: 1 Date of inspection: January 11, 2023 Type of eatery: Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen Address: 9 Queens Walk, Reading, RG1 7QF Inspectors said major improvement was necessary with regard to the management of food safety whilst improvement was necessary with regard to the cleanliness and condition of facilities and building. The hygienic handling of food was deemed generally satisfactory.

Not the best quality but half price evening menu was value for money.

Food is good, the "all you can eat" buffet has a lot of variety and is really good value for money. I used to go to the Oxford branch, sadly that it was shut

Poor attitude of the male staff! Hope it can be improved.

Price and taste are good, service is terrible

Delicious food, friendly service and very reasonably priced!

All great. Vegetarian food options great. Service fast which was what we needed.

Wasn’t expecting half price off almost every food related item. Fast service and great sushi!

Loved my first visit although I was cold!! Food was amazing, as was the service. Great atmosphere, would highly recommend x

Tasty sushi at half price was a perfect treat ! :D

The sushi weren't fresh. The sushi rice was dry and old. The so call all you can eat wasn't really that case. They hold the order paper to limit the rounds you order and the food came very late. Food wasn't nice. The service wasn't good too. No next time and not recommend.

Wait for a long time to eat 1dish =1 hour of waiting

completely rude customer service, I was on a table of 9. Two of the people decide to get the bottom less order and everyone has gotten their food except from one, everyone finished their food and the order still wasnt there. Two people had the bottom less and the worker came up to us and said “I see you eating that you’re not allowed don’t lie”. Out of order. Food was decent but wouldn’t come again.

Appalling service made the food taste worse. Rude staff all throughout. This was supposed to be an enjoyable dinner 🤦🏼‍♀️ Not worth it.
